I started as an English major, but switched to theater after getting
bitten by the bug after taking an Acting 101 class. Ended up being the
second string theater critic for the Monterey Herald at that time. Never
completed college. Had to drop out after two years due to finances, even
though my accumulated GPA was 4.0.
